Angel
of Light. God also tells us that Satan, an evil
angel, pretends to be an angel of light. He pretends to be good.
| |
No
wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.
(NASB) 2 Cor. 11:14 |
But
he is not good. He does not give us truth. He bends it just enough
to lead us away from the true God. The
demons or evil spirits are followers of Satan. Some even disguise
themselves as spirits of goodness and truth. God also tells us in
the New Testament that the spirits which pretend to be gods are not
gods.
| |
However
at that time, when you did not know God, you were slaves
to those which by nature are no gods. (NASB) Gal. 4:8 |
Conclusion: How
does God feel about other religions? God grieves for every man and
woman who rejects or ignores the true God. He loves each one. In
the book of Jonah we discover that God had great compassion for the
great city of Nineveh. It was a city which believed in many gods.

Should
I not have compassion on Nineveh, the great city in which
there are more than 120,000 persons . . . (NASB) Jonah 4:11 |
So
he sent His prophet Jonah to them to tell them about the true God.
Today, God is still reaching out to everyone. Jesus Christ came into
our world to teach us the truth. Jesus said that He was the way and
truth (John 14:6). If He is the truth then no other person qualifies.
God wants us to know that every man and woman can finally be at peace
with God if we believe that Jesus is God and returned to life after
dying to forgive our sins. We want to encourage you to click on the
words in the following link: "Do
you believe?"
